How it began: Chatelain Cargo Services was founded as a family business in 1970 by Victor and Therese Chatelain (the first truck of the company below). Philippe Victor, their son, took over the company in 1993 when the international sanctions against the coup d’état were being imposed upon Haiti with a three-year economic embargo. After the embargo was lifted, Chatelain Cargo Services grew considerably from a family company of about 20 employees to a corporation 15 years later of about 100 employees. In 2007, Phillipe Victor took the Chatelain name and franchised it with Mia C Dominguez, forming Chatelain Cargo Services, Inc. an operating NVOCC FMC License in the United States. Chatelain Cargo Services quickly became leaders in the world of freight forwarding, logistics, and broker clearance. Both entities have consistently grown worldwide due to their reputation of safe, secure shipping and delivery, competitive pricing, it’s expanded agent network, and outstanding customer support.

Local (intrastate) moves are generally based on a per-hour cost for the personnel and
the number of vehicles that the mover provides (up to a certain distance, with longer
distances based on the weight of your shipment and the mileage it is transported) and the
level of liability that the mover will cover in the event of loss or damage is generally
less than would apply for an interstate move.
Once you have compiled a list of movers, inform them of the destination and timing of your
move. Ask them about the types of services they offer. Also ask them to explain their
estimates in detail and to give you a copy. If any company refuses to give you a written
estimate, you should eliminate them from consideration. Then carefully compare to see which
mover best suits your needs and budget.
The cost of your move will be based on the actual weight of your belongings and the distance
they are shipped, plus the amount of packing and other services that you require.
To help you anticipate the cost of your move, movers will give you an estimate of the price.
Be sure to get written estimates from at least 3 different movers so that you can compare
their services and prices.
